Abstract: The incorporation of a carboxylic acid within in a series of 3-amido-4-aryl substituted piperidines (represented by general structure 32) led to the discovery of potent, zwitterionic, renin inhibitors with improved off-target profiles (CYP3A4 time-dependent inhibition and hERG affinity) relative to analogous non-zwitterionic inhibitors of the past (i.e., 3). Strategies to address the oral absorption of these zwitterions are also discussed within.
